What happened to domain.treewords.com, and what still works

Domain.treewords.com was a free web proxy the archive first saved in January 2015. What it was, when it stopped, what the name does today, and a list that is still checked.

Skip the dead lists.

Our free proxy list re-checks every exit every few minutes across 100+ countries, with a live last-checked time, so you copy IPs that worked moments ago, not a stale text dump.

Open the free proxy list

There is nothing left at domain.treewords.com. The domain no longer resolves at all, and the archive's last working copy of the site is from January 2015.

What it was

The Internet Archive's first working copy of domain.treewords.com is from January 2015 and it holds 1 days of captures in total.

The page called itself "Free Web Proxy|Free VPN Accounts|Free SSH Accounts". The directory recorded it as a Glype install, which is what nearly all of these sites were.

It was listed on workingproxysites.com, a directory of free web proxies, 12 years ago, and 420 people clicked through from there. The directory recorded it as United States.

The end of it

The last capture that shows the proxy itself is from 9 January 2015.

The address today

We checked domain.treewords.com on 10 September 2026 from our own server. The name does not resolve: there is no address behind it, so nothing can be served from it.

Where to go from here

A list with a visible last-checked time beats a remembered domain. Ours re-verifies every few minutes; the checker tests a single address if you would rather bring your own.

Expect what free has always meant: shared addresses that targets recognise, and no session persistence, which breaks anything behind a login.

The limits of this record

The record shows when, not why. Nothing public says whether the operator lost interest, lost the hosting, or simply moved on, so this page does not guess.

One check, one day, one place: that is the honest weight of what we measured, since a site blocking data centre traffic reads exactly like a site that is gone. The next check is due by 1 January 2027.
